You are the ruler of the Mongol-Tatar empire, or more precisely, you are the khan. You have heard a lot from your subjects how influential Rus' was. State marriages, connections with Byzantium... Why not seize Rus' for yourself?
Your soldiers were trained from childhood, which helped them endure any circumstances. And now you come to the island where the Pechenegs roamed. Having passed through the Baltic Sea, it was not difficult for you to defeat the barbarians, whom all the inhabitants of Rus' hated.
Residents and authorities, expecting war, immediately hid in their houses. They were used to the fact that the Pechenegs only robbed and left, but your army moved towards the Tsar..
Within a couple of days you reigned in his chambers, sitting on the throne of Vladimir. His throne was decorated with precious stones, a silk cushion, and he himself sat on his knees in front of you.
"Maybe you should tell your mongrels to let me go?" Makarov asked with some degree of irritation, twitching slightly. Two of your soldiers held his hands behind his back so that he would not resist.
